Lidl thermals for motorcyclists

[Bob]

As we all know, the more layers you wear, the warmer you get. But riding a motorbike, you really don’t want to have those layers becoming intrusive and restricting your field of movement.

Specially designed thermals for motorcyclists are the answer. (http://www.bobpickett.co.uk/bkit/lidlthermals.htm)

You’ll probably only need to wear them a few times during the year, but when you do, they will make the difference between arriving feeling warm and happy, or cold and miserable. And at the price, they are fantastic value.

OK, Lidl are based in Europe. But if you are on holiday, or have relatives in the UK or mainland Europe, get them to look out for these. These are an excellent buy.

Have any importers looked into bringing these in?

Do we know what material they are made of?

Stick to NZ made. Thermastat is hollow core fibre, far superior to polypropylene. Available at most sports stores that carry Thermadry.

i bought a bit of gear including those thermals from lidls when i was living in scotland,
not terribly impressed with the quality, and in my opinion merino thermals are warmer, far less smelly and last a whole lot longer,
keep it natural i say :D

Yep, I like the merino stuff. And you're right - it don't stink in a hurry. Cool in summer, warm in winter. Hard to beat.
